Sword Raiders II

What happened behind the scenes in Honmaru, Yu Li, who has returned to the present world, of course knows nothing about it.

As soon as she was freed from Honmaru's military affairs, she couldn't take a breather when her personal phone rang on the other end. It was the old patriarch of the Maeda family calling.

"Bring me a big meal?" Yu Li looked surprised.

[Isn't it because I see you so busy every day, so I want to pull you out to relax. 】The old man on the opposite side laughed and spoke in a very angry voice. If it weren’t for the news that he was once photographed lying in the ICU due to a serious illness, no one would believe that the old man almost passed away a few years ago. 【Private Kaiseki Cuisine , there will never be any restaurants on the market. 】

Yu Li couldn't help laughing at that mysterious tone: "Old man, someone wants to introduce me a disciple through you?"

[cough cough cough...! 】The old man on the opposite side was choked all of a sudden, as the patriarch of the clan, who is not shrewd, he immediately thought,【Someone else has already done this! ?Hey, with your current family fortune... it seems quite normal, I'm slow here. 】

Not to mention Xinggong Yuli's undisputed status as a kitchen god, but her current wealth and reputation, there are a lot of people who want to join her, even some small and medium-sized aristocratic families are envious.

Because she is only in her twenties now, she has a family business that is not inferior to that of Yuanyue Group at such a young age, and now the Xinggong Restaurant is still expanding rapidly, and it is only a matter of time before she becomes a giant overlooking the domestic food industry, and this time The paragraph won't be very long yet.

If you don't hug your thighs tightly at this time, you won't be able to drink the last sip of hot soup that follows Chengfeng straight up.

So like the old patriarch Maeda who was used as a middleman to hand over a meeting request, and even directly showed his cooking skills and a whole table of feasts to attract the attention of Yu Li, the chef god. up.

"Which family is it from?" Yu Li was not too bothered, and she was willing to be patient when it came to cooking, "And I can let you contact me personally to recommend it. I think it's not just friendship, it should be pretty good, right?"

Others may not know it, but this old patriarch who almost died due to family strife has really gone to hell. If he hadn't happened to meet Yuli and Maeda Toshiro who were also in the Yan Mo Temple, the grave would be covered by a It has been worshiped several times.

Because of this, the old patriarch Maeda, who survived the catastrophe and knew that he would live to the end of his life in safety and health, respected and flattered Yu Li, and even sent her the family's most important treasure ceremony, Tai Guangshi, as a thank you gift.Now that someone is recommending himself as a teacher to Yu Li through him, it is impossible for the old patriarch to be careless.

[Cough, it's not someone else's family, it's my branch family from Yuezhong, and there is a grandnephew who is a bit talented in this field. 】The Maeda patriarch said embarrassedly,【I have tasted the child's craftsmanship and recognized it, and he is also very sincere, so I have the cheek to pass on a message, whether you want to appreciate it or not is up to Master Xinggong yourself. 】

"Are you still a descendant of your family? Listen? You have already investigated for me before you come here." Yu Li smiled, "Yes, you have bothered so much in advance, of course you have to go. I have made a decision What day is it?"

Kaiseki cuisine is about freshness and seasonality. In order to pursue freshness, most of the ingredients cannot be prepared in advance, so it is inevitable to make an appointment in advance.

【This will naturally depend on your arrangement, Master Xinggong. 】The person on the opposite side quickly said, after all, he is asking for a teacher, so of course his attitude should be low, 【Whenever you are free, you can do it over there anytime. 】

It was not an unexpected answer, so Yu Li replied directly: "Okay, I will confirm the itinerary in a while, and I will give you an answer before evening."

【Ok, Ok. 】The old man is very polite, um...if anyone had his bizarre experience, he would be very polite. Before he was about to hang up the communication, he still asked Ai Ai Qiqi for the last time, 【That, Master Xinggong.My family... no, Maeda and Odenita in your family, how are you doing now? 】

As the former owner, he had seen them pay the gods in a state of mourning. The former owner of Maeda, who had been to hell so he was not affected by the neglect of magic, couldn't help asking about the current situation of the family's sword in the new owner's house.

The other end of the microphone paused, as if breathing lightly, and just when the old Patriarch was about to start feeling uneasy, he heard the voice again: "Well, everything is fine." It's just that I can't come to this world for the time being, and I've been staying in the Honmaru.

But she will try.

"When there is a chance, please come to my place, old man, and have a good chat with Dadianta and Maeda."

After finally hanging up the phone, Yu Li put down the phone and sat silently for a while, completely dispelling the panic and hesitation in his heart that had been forced to continue because of the archive accident.

She got the priority wrong, the most important thing now is to clear the level, as for whether the process of clearing the level is a perfect family and friends line, it is not important, and it is even less important than her helping everyone improve their strength and reach their peak as soon as possible.

The pink gems are the pink gems, how many more and how few are missing, it doesn't matter at all that she clears the level and breaks the game mode as soon as possible and restores everything to normal as soon as possible.

Wanting to understand this point, Yu Li completely let go of his entanglement, what should he do.

Ruishan Takatomo has also recently become accustomed to Yuli's pattern of working for several days and then resting for two or three days. If it wasn't for her serious and responsible work and a little bit of desperation, the manager would have suspected that the other party was in such a hurry When I go home, I want to play games again, not some nonsense about finding inspiration for new dishes.

"Your wings have hardened over the years. Even if I really suspect that you have returned home as a dead house, I can't say it so clearly." Pushing the frame of the glasses, under the name of a star palace restaurant In the office on the top floor of the office building, the manager sighed, "After all, I am paid by you."

"You've already said it!" Yu Li, who was sitting behind a luxurious desk reviewing documents and signing them from time to time, complained directly, "I've said that I'm busy with important things, and this period of time can only be transitioned in this way."

"I'm very worried." Boss Ruishan, who has turned his job as an art manager into a side job, looked at the busy people in front of him, and couldn't imagine that a few years ago, this guy was a little painter who stayed at home and waited to die, " The Xinggong Pavilion has been expanding too fast recently, and if you spend so much time on business negotiations and interpersonal entertainment, will you polish all the spirituality in art?"

The pen on the other side, who was quickly processing the work, paused: "I guess not?"

"So, how long has it been since you painted?" The manager's glasses reflected a cold light, "Have you produced any new works in such a long time? After "The Map of Hell", you also promised the government "The Map of Paradise" , What's the progress? Don't greatly reduce the quality of the paintings because you are in a hurry. Not only is it difficult for the government to explain, but it is also difficult for you to be awarded the title of master painter. Don't forget, the reason why the government directly The ancient knives of the Five Swords of the World are given to you in advance, just for your famous paintings that are destined to become national treasures."

The non-stop brushing over there started again: "I thought you were worried about something. You have been thinking about my paintings for a long time." As he said, he opened the phone with his other free hand and tapped it a few times and gave it to him ,"show you."

Ruishan Longzhi took the mobile phone, and what he saw was a small video taken by Yu Li in his home studio. The ten-meter-long Thangka Bliss has been half-painted at this time, and the completed part is flawless even if you zoom in and take a closer look. .The flowers and birds in the shrine and the gods and beasts drawn in the picture are still vivid, but through the rough video, you can feel as if you will jump out of the canvas at any time. You can imagine how shocking it will be if you face the real thing.

"Can I go over and see for myself?" The manager thought about it and asked.

"No." He was directly rejected, "My house is not convenient now."

"Oh." The face on the other side was indifferent for a moment, but it was not annoyed, because it was not the first time.

Anyway, after the Antiquity Meeting, Xinggong began to be reluctant to ask him to go to the old mansion in Kamakura to talk about things. Most of them went to the penthouse in Roppongi, and the bodyguard who used to be with her... Eh ?Is there such a thing as bodyguards?Can't remember much.In short, that house of hers has become her own base, and she won't lead anyone there.

Knowing that there was nothing to discuss about this matter, the manager quickly skipped the subject and changed another one: "During the few days you were resting, some of your disciples sent messages to contact you. You should have received the email, right? Some gourmet companies have come to Xinggong Pavilion to seek cooperation. Pure business cooperation is nothing, but these presidents and bosses also brought their children, saying that they hope you can accept them as disciples, but they did not insist that they must be apprentices , Named ones are also fine. I have asked Zhi Jinya to investigate and print out the specific list information, if you are interested, you can pick it out."

"He's here to apprentice again." Yu Li was a little annoyed, this kind of behavior seemed speculative, and it was hard not to question whether she was sincerely doing it for the sake of cooking. She didn't like it.

But the manager didn't think so: "Do you think it's the time when one person is full and the whole family is not hungry? It's important to enter the house. It's okay for you to check carefully and carefully. But the registered disciples don't need to be too stuck. They took a fancy to your influence and did not hesitate to send their children as investment certificates. This is the only way for every culinary master to become famous. Accepting them as apprentices is equivalent to tying them to your chariot. Those companies will provide you with funds, contacts, and countless resources for you to grow, and they will also get the reputation you want from you and the channels to go to the next level. If there is no previous you To annex Gu Chuan's family's property in one breath, there are already seventeen or eight registered disciples."

In the past, Yu Li would have held his head and shouted to Master not to read, but now he just stopped writing and listened to it calmly, and sighed softly for a long time: "Indeed, the reason why a group is a group is because of it." Is it because people gather together? Ah. It’s so strange that the number of registered disciples under my sect is less than that of the disciples who entered the house.”

"Xing Gong..." The manager couldn't help but sigh, just as he still retains a pious attitude towards art, Xing Gong is even more pure about cooking. She hopes that all the students she accepts will truly love cooking , so much so that I found seven disciples, and the only registered disciple so far is Fujita Ai, who is still in the third year of junior high school in Yuanyue. They are often targeted. If there are more fellow students helping each other, this will not be the case at all.

"You will send the list later, and I will take the time to pick it out in the next few days." Think? This morning, Mr. Maeda's phone call, Yu Li felt that his main job these days was to select a group of new disciples, and it seemed okay.

At the end of the day's work, Yu Li went back to the old house alone.

I called Mr. Maeda and made an appointment to have a big meal in an old house of his family in a week. I replied to a few messages from my disciples, made a video call with my mother, and went upstairs to the studio to continue finishing. Her "Picture of Ultimate Bliss".

In fact, there is no need for the boss to urge, Yu Li also clearly knows the severity.Now the sword in her knife room has not completely belonged to her. Whether the dust has settled depends on whether she has made this "Picture of Ultimate Bliss" reach the same level as "Picture of Hell".

This is an exchange between her and the government. In order not to let her "Picture of Hell" and "Picture of Paradise" go abroad, she did not hesitate to use an ancient knife to make an agreement with her. If the value is not equal, the exchange cannot be established.

"It's just that the process is a little troublesome." Standing in the studio, Yu Li looked at the tight canvas in front of him and the paint on his clothes and sighed helplessly. Ready, now I'm the one to do it, and the efficiency has suddenly become lower."

#It really is difficult to change from extravagance to frugality#

Today's polished aunt is also working hard for the collection of knives in this world.

The night was dark, and the winter weather was extremely cold. When Yu Li came out of the studio, she found that she had the first snow this year.

It was already late when she came out, the courtyard and the roof of the house were covered with a layer of silver quilt, and it happened that several blooming twigs were also crushed under the snow. This similar scene made Yu Li wonder? Honmaru has passed winter.

Snow has only just fallen here in this world, and Honmaru has just finished melting. The sense of time and space disorder of interlaced seasons makes Yuli feel dazed for a while.

Snowflakes fluttered one after another, making the mansion with only Yu Li more empty and quiet, and she couldn't help standing in the porch in a daze.

In the night sky, large and small snow flakes are turning and dancing irregularly, and some near the lights are illuminated very clearly and brightly. After watching for a long time, I feel that the starry sky covered by clouds is also flickering.

No, there is really something!

Yu Li, who was in a daze, suddenly jumped up and out of the original position.

There was only a bang, and the place where she was standing just now saw chips flying, and an unknown long-range attack directly punched a hole one meter wide.

"Who!"

Yu Li, who jumped into the courtyard, instantly looked up and locked on a certain direction in the air. A masked woman in black clothes held a shock knife in her hand and bombarded this side in a falling posture.

It's really a bombing kill, the additional power on the vibrating knife hits down? It will suffer for a yard and a radius of ten meters.

"Don't ruin my yard!"

Yu Lixiang also didn't want to raise her palm to the sky, only to see a huge enchantment-shaped shield blooming like a flower one meter away from her palm, firmly protecting half of the mansion in it.

With a bang, the sudden attack and the hastily opened barrier collided and shattered into pieces, and the explosive air wave sent snowflakes flying everywhere.

In the chaotic airflow, Yu Li was already standing on the eaves. She frowned and looked at the petite masked woman who fell on the opposite side with a look of surprise.

"The god of death in the soul world? Why did you attack me?"

Facing Yu Li's question, the other party didn't intend to answer the question at all, but slashed again with the knife in both hands. Seeing this, Yu Li could only raise the knife to greet him.

Call it first.

For a while, the sound of swords clashing on the roof of Xieshan Mountain covered with white snow rang continuously, and the two figures fighting could not be seen clearly in the dark night. nervous.

During this process, the opponent not only competed with her with swordsmanship, but also had more extremely fierce kicks and kicks. Strong moves are the way to kill people. Gu's devil special training blessing, almost really overturned.

This is by no means an ordinary Grim Reaper, and his strength is at least that of a sub-team level master!

The process of hand-to-hand combat was not long, and after confirming that the enemy could not be restrained, he simply pulled away and opened the distance. Yu Li thought she would stop there, but heard a soft whisper in the breeze.

"Slay all enemies, Sparrow Bee."

The author has something to say:

I thought that I would go back to my hometown by car in the morning and I couldn’t code today, but I changed it to leave in the afternoon, so I can update it quickly while I still have time, haha.

happy New Year! !
